Guys, this time it will be the list with the short introduction of the game. This list is from February 2015 and contains the interesting games that were announced. There are some I am looking forward myself…

No this game is not about that french painter, but it surely evokes kind of adventure. And the second one is correct. It will be adventure and quite dark one. Detective story with the dusky atmosphere. This will be developed in Europe – Czech republic by the Soulbound games. Story of the bankrupted detective James Renoir. Typical last case full of dirt.

Oh guys, this will be massacre, I want it right now, right here. The golden age for vampires. The times after WW I, when the Spanish flu stroke, chaotic times and you are doctor – the vampire doctor. You can choose if you will heal the patient and make him/her a vampire or you will let him/her die. There is lack of vampire games and especially vampire RPGs. So this is what I look forward the most and it is from the same studio as the Life is strange.

The mysteries of the lunar station. And you will be playing them as the lady technician. From the first pictures it seems to be very personal. Fullbright company is coming with the new unorthodox game. Same creators as Gone home, which is more like an experiment with the commercial success.

Stoic studio came with the strategic RPG turn-based fights and was very suprising by the difficult fights and for the complex storyline with the lot of REAL choices. Together with magnificent sound and arts. So we will have a sequel. Hope it will be as good as the Banner saga.

Castle Clash is a war game in which you can hire troops and battle against enemies. You’re able to watch battles take place and end battles when you want. At first, you end up losing all the battles since the enemy is stronger. You’re able to level up your troops with coins and experience to increase your odds of winning battle.

In the shop you can buy treasure, shields, decorations, resources, attack mechanisms, and defense mechanisms. You can either pay with gold coins, treasure gems, or USD. The reasons for purchasing really are self-explanatory, however your resources aren’t really explained. They just sit on the screen with the number of whatever you have.

Play the game a little more and you’ll realize these resources are pretty important. You have gold coins and blue mana that can help you upgrade your troops and increase your odds to win against enemies. You collect coins from the gold mine and mana from the mana mill. You have the pink treasure gems which buys defensive shields and allows you to add builders. You can purchase treasure with USD or collect it through daily rewards.

On the left side of the screen the icon with the gold star indicates the number of your honor badges. These badges allow you to hire “heroes” and increase their star levels so you have an even bigger chance of winning battles. Another important aspect of the game that takes a bit to dig around to identify is your might. On the left side of the screen is a little gray fist icon. This icon indicates your title, which in the beginning is Peasant. You upgrade your title by increasing your might. To increase your might, you need to upgrade buildings and train your heroes and troops.

Basically, you need to build up your land as best as you can to win battles. It’s a fun game if you’re really interested in a strategical war game. However, if you’re not into battle type games, you’ll be pretty lost and most likely end up deleting the app.

Tapped out review and cheats

Hello there, today we will target and talk about the mass game made by EA (Electronic Arts), which is a company known for their AAA titles. But apparently the mobile gaming is something they are interested into as well as it generates nice and quick money. So first of all, what are Simpsons Tapped Out about and which OS are supported? Supported are iOS and android as usual. But iOS version was released in 2012 and Android one year later – in 2013. Online gaming is now supported for both platforms. And if you played it you may try Tapped out cheats and then report back to tell us if it is still working.

The game starts with Homer (who else?) who is playing with his myPad and there is a serious situation in the motion – the nuclear power plant is about to do the nuclear meltdown and destroy the whole town of Springfield. But it will not be Homer not to be distracted all the time so it will really happens. But what then if all is gone? Do not worry – this is your task – to rebuild the whole city and to save them all. You will start with what else than with Simpsons house. During the game you will be finding the good old characters and your another task will be to guide them back to their old life. But this game is freemium what means that game is free but asks you for your real money. In the game you will be earning the Cash and XP by sending discovered characters to missions. And this will unlock you more and more characters. The game freemium currency is guess what? Donuts!

If you love Simpsons get this game and give it a try, it is pretty funny as Simpsons could be! And as it is free you will not take that much risk. If you do not want to spend money you may always try the cheat I mentioned in the beginning. Have fun!

This small review will be for those who never heard of fallout original series. For those who are too young to remember the 90’s and for those who were successfully avoiding to play games from 90’s.

War, war is always unfair, with people suffering. But luckily we never experienced the nuclear war. War with fallout and nuclear winter. The characters in the Fallout game had no so much luck and they are living and in the world after the great nuclear war, which devastated the world. So you can experience the after nuke war open world (off course it has some limitations, we are back in 1997 when the game was released).

1990’s were full of the RPG games, which were set into some kind of fantasy worlds full of orcs and battleaxes. Fortunately not this one. It is an unofficial sequel to Wasteland – game from 1987. So I personally was sick of dungeons and finding artefacts to stop the orcs and devil forces. Its story is set several years after nukes exchange and you – the player – are living in the settlement underground, where your parents bought a place in case the nukes will come. It’s name is Vault 13. You are living nice life comparing to what’s happening out of vault. In fact you have no idea nor anybody in the vault what is happening out there. But the life is a bitch and the broken chip of vault’s water recycler makes you go out there. But remember you need to save your vault within the 100 days as after this time the vaults water supplies will be down to 0 and your fellow friends and family will be dead. Oh nice.

How it looks like? Let’s check some screenshots…

These days, you will say it’s trash. But hey! Give it a chance and you will not regret (ok you maybe will as you will spend hours trying to save your vault). So it is isomorphic view and the fights are turn based. And it is it’s beauty. You will be exploring the world trying to find the chip, completing the missions, but the most power of its gameplay is that it is not linear and your decisions and karma really affects the gameplay. If you are bad ass, you will be not welcome in some places, in some you will be a guest of honor, and in some that will start fight once you are closer than they like. Also completing some missions will not allow you to take another missions. But remember you have 100 days to save the vault.

The post-apocalyptic world is nicely and wisely designed. There is the whole world with its rules and settlements with real characters in it. And you will be having them all the time. They are not coming from thin air. They are usually part of a group. Bad or neutral or just nice. You will see mutants, poor people, gangs, rad scorpions, giant ants, brahmins, just all kind of creatures you expect to see in the radiation devastated world. There are various factions like Brotherhood of steel, Followers of Apocalypse, Children of Cathedral, Water merchants, Raiders, Khans and many more.

This is RPG, remember? So in the beginning you will create your character. But it is not boring. First of all you have SPECIAL – strength, perception, endurance, charisma, intelligence, agility, luck. From these it depends a lot. The next are skills. They are either combat, active or passive – few examples – unarmed, small guns, big guns, doctor, lockpick, science, repair. They are associated with SPECIAL and depends on them, but can be improved independently. The next are perks. You will receive them once you level up (each 3 levels I think). You have experience points gaining for missions, killing enemies and so on. As you see the RPG part is very strong here and well thought out. They are also very balanced.

Do you remember the guys from Bullfrog? No? What a shame! They created one of the most popular game from the “tycoon” games. Its name is Theme Hospital and it made me almost addict

It was released in 1997 and the graphics is outdated nowadays, but not the pleasure of playing. And that is what the games should be about. This game is the business simulation genre and your task is to design and operate a hospital. But it is not an ordinary hospital. It has a lot of sometimes sick humour in it You need to get patients to your hospital to earn money. You have to design rooms, buy equipment, hire employees – nurses, doctors, receptionist. And you need to make the patients do in your hospital what you want to do without direct control over them. They can wander your hospital as they want. And they will had the DISEASES. Have you ever heard about Broken Heart, Slack Tongue, Bloaty head, Golf Stones? Well, it is your task to treat them for a fair price, so they will be coming back to your hospital. And you need to have a reputation, or you will have no patients.

Another thing is that you need the well trained doctors, nurses, handyman…. Why? Because you need to do research, you need to doctors to lecture other doctors with lower qualification. And you need your hospital clean and you plants watered, machinery running and that is why you need handyman.

What you also need to do is to properly equip your rooms with furniture, make the environment comfortable – not too cold, not too hot, you need benches for people.

So it is not so easy you thought? Interested? Let me tell you where you can get it and what you can play on. Initially it was released for PC, 1 year later also the Playstation version was released. In 2010 it was ported for Playstation 3 and is available on PSN network. For the windows and MAC it is available from gog.com for around 6 usd (valued from 22/10/2014). Also I was lucky and I was able to make it run on linux using playonlinux with all features working including the save option. There are some open source clones, like openTH, which is dead and its successor CorsixTH, which should be working with original data files from Theme Hospital. Believe it or not, but you can even play Theme Hospital on android phone or tablet. There are two versions – free, but you need to google it and download from the web page or paid, which is the same, but one guy took the code and is selling the same coded game on Android Play Store for money – why? because the licence allows him to do so. UPDATE: today I searched the Play store for CorsixTH and what a surprise – is there and for free. The installer even allows you to download demo, so you can play around before getting the original data files. Very handy!

Here I prepared some screenshots for you to get you in the picture:

Well, as I said the outdated graphics is compensated with the lot of pleasure and fun. And you can have it for few dollars and get more fun than from the game of 50 dollars. So have a fun!
